DEAR READERS
For this month’s cover story, I had the pleasure of speaking to the powerhouse aesthetic nurse prescriber and BAMAN chair, Amy Bird about how trauma became a catalyst for success and speaking up for what you believe in.
This month we put a special emphasis on men’s health and aesthetics.
Dr Ginni Mansberg explains what you need to know about male skin, Emma Wedgwood delves into the male consultation process, Dr Shirin Lakhani discusses male hormones and former editor Anna Dobbie asks experts about the top treatments for male hair loss.
Elsewhere, I look at Lipoedema, a condition that has been gaining more media attention but still remains largely unknown and consultant editor Vicky Eldridge asks our Women in Aesthetic Medicine board whether chaperoning should become more common for safeguarding in aesthetic clinics.
We have some amazing columns this month including one from The Aesthetics Consultant, Vanessa Bird, who shares comments from a recent Instagram post and asks, ‘Is aesthetics broken?’ Meanwhile, Amy Bird looks at what we can learn from Scotland when it comes to getting regulation over the line.
We hope you enjoy this issue and Aesthetic Medicine London on 8-9th May.
I hope to see all of you there.
Editor, Kezia Parkins
